The mastergrower at a London-based pot producer is sharing his story about life in the cannabis business.

Indiva co-founder Pete Young, who works as the master grower at the Hargrieve Road licensed cannabis producer, will talk about his book, The High Road: A Pot Grower’s Journey From the Black Market to the Stock Market, on May 25 at the Strathroy Library.

The 199-page book details Young’s transition from a surfing-obsessed teen who grew pot on the roof a Long Beach, N.Y., apartment building to a Canadian cannabis advocate who founded the London Compassion Society to supply medical marijuana to patients.

After years honing his pot-growing skills and pushing back against Canada’s cannabis laws, Young helped launch Indiva and became the company’s master grower. He’s responsible for overseeing every aspect of the growing process from seeding and germination to feeding and harvesting.
